    Joe and Jane American don't give a sh*t about Castro, the Berlin Wall, or the Cold War. You're going to find that out the hard way if you keep ripping them off. Paul Ryan's BS about cutting entitlement programs to save them had about 15% support when the GOP blinked when it came time to cut health care.

    American workers are going nowhere? Do you think happiness is measured in government Social Programs?

    Of course, and that lack of knowledge is reflected in your posts.

    It seems you don't know a helluva lot about anything, including 'Joe and Jane American'. You're all fact-free opinion.

    Brilliant . . . the 'Muslim representative' sure didn't expect that? I say again - absolutely brilliant and indisputable.

    So those countries you named are the "real" Socialist countries while others just call themselves 'Socialist'. What about Communist countries? How are they doing and how have they compared with Socialist countries?

    Take a look above--see for yourself. We don't even keep up with the UK.

    Go ahead. Cut the pre-existing conditions guaranteed by Obamacare. End the subsidies for middle income workers. Cut the COLA for Social Security. I dare ya.

    Yeah, sure--I took a look at your "light your hair on fire" video. I didn't miss anything.

    Never mentioned 'bad actors' or France. And you taught school?

    I asked "Do you think happiness is measured in government Social Programs?" and you respond with completely unrelated links. Whatever you thought it seems to have had little to do with logic.

    Your question was a red herring and unresponsive to my point about average folks not putting up with getting ripped off. I mentioned Social Security and medical care because those are decided by the government and subject to the electoral blowback against elites. I could also have mentioned laws hobbling unions.

    Most average guys just want a chance to earn a decent living.

    I said "you guys." It's you and your fellow forum travelers.

    There are very few socialist countries--ie. where significant production is collectivized.
